We made and won finals without him. He isnโ€™t the reason we canโ€™t win a game.ย 

Agree, we would not suddenly kick it well into the f50 cos Hogan was there, we would butcher it to him instead of another player.

ย 

Are Hibbard and Lewis both now out injured..?ย 

Lets go draft some more hard no skill players.

Lewis finished, enough of the one handed tackles and turnovers.ย 

Garlett shat himself 3 times going forย a mark. Magnificent.

Petracca is the worst kick for goal in AFL history and is just a player who destroys the efforts of his team mates.

Keilty, sorry Drunkโ€™n, but he is having a shocker. Not sure why Preuss wasnโ€™t played. Preuss had 49 hit outs and 2 goals for Casey today.ย 

World record entries in F50 for least return.ย 

They ย are the most poorly skilled side in the AFL and plenty of us have said it for a few years now and to me nothing has been done about it.

Even if we fluke a win today what I said stands.ย 

It is actually embarrassing watching us play. How can you as an AFL player not be able to kick, mark and handball. ย It defies logic.

Jeff has run under the ball and squibbed 2 easy AFL marks already. Unforgivable to do it twice in a half. Bruise free stuff from Jeff. Won't play next weekย

Lewis looks ok now.

Put Keilty on the bench and leave him there, I donโ€™t know how he was able to get a second game but he is honestly the single worst footballer to wear our jumper I have ever seen.ย 

Lewis is pretty horrible defensively.ย 

Our forwards keep running under the footballย 

Grow up, decrepit old man

I 'm in Edinburgh now. It's only 9.00 am but I'm going to have a 'wee Doc and Doris ' and a good lie down. Can't say I'm missing the footy. It sounds pretty bad by all accounts.

Watching this rubbish is robbing me of the will to live.ย 

McQueen out.ย ย

Really, though? We are dominating everywhere but the score, and actually defending well.ย 

Agree - I actually think we're playing much better, and starting to see the Melbourne of last year.

Up until we go I50 that is.

Tom Mac really down on form/confidence isn't helping - and it isn't helping the players up the field either, because they're not automatically looking for him, thus hesitation, thus the kind of all-over-the-place entries we're seeing.

Yet another goalless quarter.ย 

Are there stats re dominating inside 50 without scoring goals? We must surely be near some sort of record.ย

Hibbo absolutely smashed his collar bone. He's def out.

Lewis got stood on Ibelieve? Didint look too bad.

Pathetic skill levels from the team tonight. An embarrassment.

Are you sure you are not an alias for Titus?

Forward entry dirtier than Ricky Nixon's black book.

Just Filthy!!!

No matter what, Goodwin refuses to play man on man. We must always leave a player loose in our back half, which makes our forwardline constantly outnumbered and playing 2 on 1.

When will weย learn that without proper numbers up forward we canโ€™t influence the scoreboard, no matter how many times we bomb it in there?ย 

We cannot hit a target sure, but TMac is always playing on two defenders. And Garlett gets the ball kicked over his head and there are two loose GC players. We have no chance because we are conceding a forward.ย 

First point. That's why we aren't getting smashed at the moment.ย 

Second Point. It's the bombing in that's the problem.

Third Point. If we have a man back and TMac is has two players playing on him..... we have a one on one if we don't do dumb crap. Garlett can't have two players loose if TMac has two defenders playing on him.

3 goals in a half of football against Gold Coast.

3 [censored] goals

Can't wait to count howย many "connections" references our middle manager coach will make at his concession speech. The one thing we can count on is that it will outnumber the goals we kick.

ย 

ย 

We are playingย well all over the ground but as soon as we see that 50 meter line we become idiots.

This season is over. Letโ€™s finish low and draft skilled players. Yes I said skilled players. Salem would be so happy to have some friends.ย 

We are an absolute disgrace.


The balance (inside and out) from last week has gone.ย  Viney, so far, has not added to the team and is flat footed around the contest.

Again we are back to too many pure coal face players at the contest with no ability to break away and release to the likes of Stretch (is he there?),ย  Salem and Fritshkreig (out best ball users).

Stewy Dew's worried about our "polish"?

?

ย 

Poor decision making...eg Stretch defending kicks the ball back into the centre of our defensive 50 FFS.

Yep and IDAK stood for

Instant Destroy and Kill

Absolute last chance for Turbo Mcย and Pedestrian Jordan Lewis today . Tide is turning!

Also Jack Viney would not want to reinjure that shoulder if NQR!

Big Day for quite a few today!

DEES JUST!

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven Mayย 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
